- Comment on Internet and smartphones have increased people sitting in their cars for extended time, but people suspicious why someone is sitting in a car for an extended time has not decreased proportionally. 3 weeks ago:
My mom was just saying 2 days ago as we walked down our street, she doesn’t understand why so many people come home in the evening and just sit in their cars. Like, you’re home. Go in your home. We could come up with plenty of scenarios for people to do it once in a while, but for so many it’s like a ritual.

I would like the option to make it public on my community. I have asked people not to downvote amateur bakers for just trying to improve their skills but some assholes don’t listen.

- Comment on Is it possible to have an English only setting here? 1 year ago:
This. Instead of relying on users to select a language for each post, there should be a language selected for the community, and the ability to filter communities accordingly.
- Comment on Weird 🤔 1 year ago:
As an example, I started c/52weeksofbaking (copied over from reddit). Its a place for amateur bakers to challenge themselves, try new things, and share their successes and failures. There’s zero reason to downvote posts there. I stickied a request for people to not downvote in that community. It’s currently sitting at 20 upvotes and 18 downvotes.
We can make fun of people for caring about fake internet points, but if we want to get more people to use lemmy and create content, we need to create communities that feel welcoming.

So far, I’ve encountered far more negativity on Lemmy than I did on reddit. Ymmv, but I feel like our smaller user base has concentrated the negativity.
